The of geophysical methods is an evolving science that can address a variety of objectives
in groundwater investigations. However, because the successful application of geophysical methods
depends on the available technology, logistics, and expertise of the investigator, there can be no
single set of field procedures or approaches prescribed for all cases. BS PD ISO/TR 21414:2016 provides
guidelines that are useful for conducting geophysical surveys for a variety of objectives (including
environmental aspects), within the limits of modern-day instrumentation and interpretive techniques,
are provided. The more commonly used field techniques and practices are described, with an emphasis
on electrical resistivity, electromagnetic, and seismic refraction techniques as these are widely used in
groundwater exploration. Theoretical aspects and details of interpretational procedures are referred
to only in a general way. For full details, reference is intended to be made to specialized texts listed in
the Bibliography.All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
